Campus Book Rentals features RentBack

This year Noah is in second grade, and this year I had to pay the dreaded book rental fees. This is a new concept to me but not for my mom. I had to pay over a hundred dollars for Noah's books. These books aren't to keep but for rent. He has to give them back!! It comes out to about $40 a book for a second grader. Either the books cost a fortune or I'm in the wrong business. I know that books are expensive especially when you are in college. Most college students buy their books. If you have to spend a lot of money on books that will make you pay more when you are paying off your student loans after graduation.

College students can pay thousands for the books their classes. Thankfully Campus Book Rentals has made the ability to rent books possible for college students. They have a huge selection so you should be able to find whatever you are looking for. The savings is amazing. What would you do with your old books anyways? Unless you are a doctor or scientist and you use your books as reference chances are they will live in a box in the garage. Using Campus Book Rentals is fast and easy. You skip the lines at the school bookstore.  Your books are shipped to your door. You save money so you can eat more than Ramen noodles. Campus Book Rentals also partners with Operation Smile who provide surgeries for children who have a cleft lip or a cleft palate.

Here are some more perks of using Campus Book Rentals:

-save 40-90% off of bookstore prices

-free shipping both ways

-can highlight in the textbooks

-flexible renting periods

If you have textbooks laying around check out the RentBack Program. RentBack is new initiative that allows students to rent the textbooks they own - to other students... which is awesome because it makes you 2-4x more money compared to what you'd make through buyback options! Buyback is selling their books back at the end of the semester.

I Love Playing Slot Machines

One of the many things I inherited from my Grandma Rose is my love to play slot machines. When she visited my aunt and uncle in California, they always went to Reno. My Grandma Rose liked to play the nickel slots and if you knew her it was funny because she didn’t seem like a gambling woman. She was very Catholic and an amazing person. My aunt and uncle gave her a toy slot machine. I played with it all the time. We went to visit them and I remember going to Circus Circus when I was 16 to just check it out and I was mesmerized by the Free Play Twin Spin Slot Machine. I wasn't old enough to gamble but I loved looking at them spin and seeing people win. I knew that when I was old enough I would play the slots someday.

 After I turned 21, I went to the casino a few times. After I became a mom, I couldn't take off to a casino very easily. So I went online and play on sites like www.starburst-slot.co.uk to get the thrill of a win. If you know how much I love my jammies you know playing in them is exciting. I don't have to go anywhere. I can play anytime and I can do it from bed. All I have to do is press and there is no crowd of people, there is no smoke filled rooms or people trying to take your machine.
